##Features

• The dojo toolkit via CDN (the dojo files in your local directory are only used for build and test).
• Custormized build script from dojo-boilerplate, which build app in a release folder, delete .uncompressed files, and remove dojo local files in the directory, then rewrite config.js to remove debug mode.
• Light weight node server for test run.
• TDD!

How you create new pages from this?

To be optimized build, you should create a controller in a page as a main script. In the controller, require all Widgets used in the page . then add the controller name to /tools/build/profile.js as follows

layers: {
	'App/Controllers/Index' :{},
	'App/Controllers/#{createdControllerName}' :{},`
},

After build, you will see all modules required in a controller is now complessed into a single controller file. but you don't have to change any codes.
